Stay in your lane, senior.

You're right about that. Cars look different in person than even photographs of the actual car, much less a drawing. Sometimes it's difficult to imagine.

120K plus IMO. Depends on how many are on the itinerary to build of course. If it comes close (or beats)the Ford GT in performance (doubt it does in looks department) it will be a bargain. Ive never had a corvette but if this thing has gotten my attention. I'll probably be getting one. IMO, chevy will be drawing in a lot of new customers with this car.

Lighten up, Francis.
Aren't you the one who said: "It's conversation?"
Perhaps you need a refresher course in what a public forum is.....so go sit in your corner and think about it. And don't bring a knife to a gun fight.

I enhanced the blurred out face of one of the guys. I think I recognize who it is.
The black shape on the rear deck is supposed to be a wing. Limited rendering ability here.

I like what I see so far but I am combing the internet in the hope to find spy photos of the next front engine Corvette.
Cannot find any.
SO is this it!? The C7 is the last front engine platform?
Why can't the Chevrolet Corvette brand expand in options ala Porsche??
Wait!...I think I ear Tadge phone ringing..

There has been a lot of discussion about whether the C7 is the last of the FEs or not.
We have had no official hint one way or another at this point.

I like to think the rear fenders will be more like a C2 & less Ferrari or R8

Thanks. I don't think there will be the overly obvious air scoops on the outside of the doors like the R8 either. From the spy images, it does look like there are tunnels inside the doors.
Also looks like there is some sort of air scoop in the top of the rear fender similar to the 488 I for one would be happy to see the rear fender and deck combine some sort of tunnel Wing system being the design sleek and yet functional but not as crazy wild as the GT.
Can't wait to see what they come up with.
From the spy images, it looks like the rear face may be an extension of the C7 design where the lights and vent exhaust our extended downward making the area larger and with split exhaust. Hopefully a slight improvement over the C7 rear visually

The only thing that might change my mind is what powers it.
How ever with 650 HP I don't feel under powered anyway. This is
my very humble opinion. My Z is artic white
